A competitive market is made up of 100 identical firms. Each firm has a short-run marginal cost function as follows: MC = 50.5Q, where Q represents units of output per unit of time. The firm's average variable cost curve intersects the marginal cost at a vertical distance of 10 above the horizontal axis. a. Determine the market short-run supply curve. b. Calculate the price that would make 2,000 units forthcoming per time period.

If a perfectly competitive firm's average total cost is above price at the loss-minimizing output, the firm should continue to produce in the short run as long as the firm is earning an accounting profit, price is above the average variable cost, and price is above the marginal cost.
